I thought I would share about the decor & games we had at my daughters recent Pirate & Fairy Themed Party.
We did parts of the decor fairy and parts pirate themed. Fortunately my niece had a Fairy Ballerina themed party for her 5th birthday so we were able to borrow lots of fairy themed decor and my sister-in-law also helped set up the decor. We had the main food table like a ship, thanks to my husband. The drinks table was very much following the fairy theme. Upon arrival we had dotted lines drawn on the paths to follow to the ‘x’ where the treasure box and the party was. The treasure box was filled with prizes for the games. We actually forgot to do the best dressed prize but there were many beautiful fairies and pirates who attended the party.
The party bags had a pirate skull & cross bone on one side with a fairy wand on the other. Printed in black & white and stuck onto brown paper bags with a name tag added. Each bag contained:
- 1 pirate pencil
- 1 coloured pacer pencil
- chocolate coins
- sticker sheet
- whistle blower
- party popper
- parachute man
- bubbles
- fairy dust (sherbet) straws
Games to match the theme included:
- Pass the Parcel (2 parcels – 1 with a fairy prize & 1 with a pirate prize)
- Treasure Hunt (we were able to borrow about 150 gold painted rocks which were hidden and the person who found the most had first pick at the prize box.)
- Musical Toadstools (round circles cut from plastic table cloth, with white paper spots glued on)
- Monte Carlo with a fairy or pirate picture in each corner
- Pin the Wand on the Fairy
- Man the Lifeboats (relay race involving inner tubes)
- A Treasurebox Pinata
